Question

Brooke was the high scorer on her basketball team, making 15 baskets out of 25 shots attempted. What was her percent of success in shooting a basketball?

Answer 1

Answer:

She had a success rate of 60 %.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate her percentage of success we need to take the total amount of shots she made and divide it by the total amounts of shots she attempted and multiply it by 100. Since she took 25 shoots and made 15, we have:

percentage of success = (15/25)*100% = 0.6*100% = 60 %

She had a success rate of 60 %.
